Hi
Of course, the error message appears when the cable is connected and I turn off the PC. When I restart, it's not a problem.
Also There is no problem when the cable is unplugged.
Do this method (Plug and unplug) and the existence of this error do not harm the PC?

If you're not going to use TV, on the computer you designate as your "server" you don't need to install Media Portal on it at all. Just set up some shares and you're done.
On the 'clients' you install Media Portal and use your network shares coming off the server computer for your media folders.
For just file serving your file...

2 x 150 does the same as a 500, butt 2 x 150......
1. Takes up more space in your computer, look at future expandabillity.
2. Requires 2 antenna connections
3. Consumes more power
A PVR500MCE is just a cleaner way of doing it.

2 of the 150's would be cheaper, wouldn't they do the same thing as the 1 500??
If not, what would the differences be??
Thanks...

Hey, if you want to play downloaded material no GPU will cover you 100% because the encoders out there don't always encode with DXVA directives. So you will find yourself still not being able to play some HD content. Better upgrade cpu and board with integrated graphics and buy a discrete card only if you need it (games etc.).
p.s...

Maybe software based cards do, but AFAIK all MPEG2, MCE and BDA cards don't need the external audio connection.

Speed is nice but for shore not a requirement for a A/V server 40mbit=5MB/sec(*) is really the max you ever have to stream even the first IDE drive that came out can still do that
A Areca 1160 (16x sata) whit 14 disks can still do 200MB/sec and yeah the IOP 341 scales mouths better 14 disk do around 750GB/sec
But whats the point...

I have the following in my home; 52" Sony, 55" Samsung and a 70"Sharp. without a doubt the samsung is the winner for picture quality.

The CPU might be the reason.
Go into the BIOS and manually set the HT link to 1.8Ghz. Or use AMD OverDrive to adjust the HT3 frequency.

Hi!§
The 6150 is the best mobo with onboard gfx - many perfer using nVidia Purevideo-decoders; this makes this mobo an even better choice.
Just built a "HTPC" with this case, Asus 6150 (AM2), 3000+ and 1GB RAM.
not for myself, unfortunatly :x
